Steps To Reproduce

Pickup HK417
add supressor
set night time
shoot
observe lighting flash effect

Additional Information

Supressors eliminate or atleast minimise a muzzle flash. The severity of the flash now, even without the muzzle flashlash, is too high.

I suggest removing it all together when a supressor is attached.

Hi, you probably mean SPAR-17 7.62mm. Hk417 is not present in basic Arma 3 assets. Suppressors have to minimize just muzzle flash and noise that could be heard from a bigger distance. But in close distance you are still able to hear shots from rifle even in real.

Yes I mean the Spar-17 srry.

But the flash as is still in there is way too much. The light effect is as much as a fullblown muzzleflame. It is nowhere near 'minimized'. Try it as I described.
I know how these things work, at work. ;-)

Will send sceenshots later

Hi, screenshots or video will be very good example but I´ve done what you descriebed (1.67/1.66) with SPAR-17. There was not muzzle flash or too loud shot sound. So it´s odd.

Send me the video in the best case.
